GTR for the track, Corvettes are great but lose time in the corners imo
Did you just volunteer or did you get paid?
>>17397481
You volunteer for pro races, And depends on your organization wether you get paid or not, You can work for track time or money with the org im with.

Are you ding it for free? Can you be a marshal in exchange for free trackdays? What are responsibilities for fuck ups?

Very cool, I'll have to see what I can do at my next race near me.

At first you volunteer, get the training (which i just working a day or two with someone) and then you can start getting paid with money or track credit, so yes if I choose I can work a day and get one whole track day for free. the other option is just a flat check.
You can only fuck up so badly, only real rule is confirming there is a fire before you actually call in there is a fire, at that point the session stops and the safety team comes out the second you say so.
At pro races if someone like a photographer gets killed standing where they shouldnt be in your area you can be lose some credentials ive heard.
